The FBI is watching.
And today, the ACLU charged that both the FBI and local police are engaging in intimidation by monitoring law-abiding human rights and other activist groups. The groups targeted by the FBI include: Food Not Bombs, which provides vegetarian meals to the hungry; Greenpeace, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, United for Peace and Justice, and the American-Arab Anti-Discrimiation Committee.
The ACLU, after hearing numerous complaints from memberes of activist groups, filed Freedom of Informaton Act requests in six states and the District of Columbia in December of 2004. According to ACLU officials, the FBI is illegally withholding thousands of documents. So far, the agency has produced a whopping twenty documents. In response, the ACLU has filed suit against the FBI.
